Unfortunately, many customer sites (heck, many ISP's) aren't run by people who are well-versed in the black art of running an efficient news server. Some have too little bandwidth during some parts of the day to keep up, while others are simply mismanaged (always running out of disk, or the server has crashed, etc.) It's not your fault in that case, but customers don't seem to care when they call you up and complain. :-/ -- Brian Tao (BT300, taob@io.org, taob@ican.net) Senior Systems and Network Administrator, Internet Canada Corp.
